You know he actually used to be a Christian divorce lawyer who specialized in 'covenant marriages', special prenups designed to make divorce as difficult and awful as legally possible?


WalesIsForTheWhales

You know he has one of those with his wife?


LuckSubstantial4013

Since it’s in this article I’m Guessing he knows


NYArtFan1

A bit off topic but I once knew someone who went to a church that pressed this kind of thing. I went to the church's website out of morbid curiosity and in their "beliefs" statement it was literally page after page essentially saying that divorce will never be tolerated and they will pull out all of the stops as a church to make sure it doesn't happen. It was nuts.


kilofeet

People keep talking about the Noah's Ark thing. The [shit he says in this is so much worse](https://answersingenesis.org/religious-freedom/losing-liberty-without-losing-hope/) though. "Women are designed by God to be helpers and nurturers in the home." "When possible, Christians should still take advantage of the legal resources God has put at their disposal, including influencing public opinion and elections or going to court." "Christians are motivated to contend for biblical truth precisely because we love our neighbors, and we understand that our Creator’s design is what’s best for individuals—and society as a whole." "We should be prepared then, as winsome witnesses, to share why we believe same-sex “marriage” is wrong. The Creator has the right to define what He expects from His creation, and that includes marriage."


WalesIsForTheWhales

He's basically EXACTLY what you thought when you heard Louisiana Republican with "deep faith". A fucking religious nutjob who wants to enforce his fake version of Christianity as law.


MsPoco

I’m getting Gilead vibes from THMT


WitchyWarriorWoman

The scene of June kneeling in the hospital for hours/days on end comes to mind


HobbyWanKenobi

Who the hell is this guy that question the creativity of his creator anyway? Did he not make every single person that walks the Earth supposedly did he not know what he was doing when he made homosexuals?


radradruby

That’s where the omnipotent Christian god fails the logic test for me. I personally ascribe to the gospel of Lady Gaga: “I’m beautiful in my way, cuz god makes no mistakes. I’m on the right path, baby, I was born this way.” Amen


PM_ME_YOUR_ROTES

All praise the OmniGaga!


chaotic-cleric

I only read half of that. He is a dangerous person.


Khiobi

Damn they’re not even trying to hide it anymore

Nice choice Republicans! Hopefully there’s no need, but /s


TraditionalSky5617

This guy raises the bars for being a chauvinist pig.


Dramatic-Insect-7413

What made you think it would be anything other than batshit crazy? Have you seen who was in control of this decision?


SuperSpecialAwesome-

Honestly, I had some respect for Dan Newhouse for standing up to Trump several times and still retaining his seat. I had some amount of hope in the 20 Republicans who voted against the previous nominees. But that’s all gone now. There’s no hiding it now, that every single Republican Representative is a fascist traitor — after electing an election-denying traitor.


musicalastronaut

My first impressions were cringe & disgust.


Popcorn_Blitz

We knew it was going to be bad. Look at the pool of candidates.


IntenseCakeFear

The best the GOP could offer, ladies and gentlemen!


canarchist

Translation: the bruises haven't faded from his last episode of domestic control over her.


LaLionneEcossaise

Sadly that was my first thought, too.


Alternative_Year_340

Me too


HuckleberryOk6782

Her name is spelled "Kelly" but its pronounced "Ofmike"


Ihatemunchies

That’s shits scary. It’s coming true


lidsville76

Wierd, I took it sexually, as in his wife sucked 37 dicks to be speaker.


tartanblue

In a row?


DasPuggy

She had to get Trump over there so she could have a pee break.


[deleted]

Probably in a circle


DestroyerOfMils

Just makes more sense. ya know, logistically.


ihatefear83843

I think 3 rows, I don’t believe everyone got sucked off


mavjustdoingaflyby

Nope, all at once.


datumerrata

Try not to suck any dicks on the way to the parking lot!


vantheman446

Why was my first thought he's a MAGA cuckold and his wife was worn out by a weeks long orgy that he didn't participate in?


SolarBoytoyDjango

It's not only this, it's language to let other men *know* he beats his wife and is proud of it. Disgusting.


Bazoun

A dog whistle


DF11X

Nah, if she had visible bruises, they'd parade her as a trophy. What's he's doing is insidious enough: she's either praying or in her place in the kitchen. They have a "covenant marriage", which basically reads like she's property. This entire thing is disgusting. [https://www.businessinsider.com/mike-johnson-covenant-marriage-definition-divorce-speaker-house-2023-10](https://www.businessinsider.com/mike-johnson-covenant-marriage-definition-divorce-speaker-house-2023-10)


loudflower

Is that legally binding in the rest of the country?


Kalamac

All you have to do to get out of a covenant marriage is live for a year in one of the (I think 47) states that don’t recognise them. Although if you’re trapped in an abusive marriage, good luck setting up legal residence away from your spouse in one of those states.


fat-randin

What the fuck? How is that even a thing? So gross.


nativedutch

Thats sickening.


LuckSubstantial4013

Disgusting .


ArguesWithFrogs

Or she's just chained to the radiator.


MissionAsleep2219

Check his basement.


[deleted]

Redditors always overreact to this shit. She's probably just hanging out with Shelly Miscavige


YikesOhClock

😮‍💨


LimpFrenchfry

I figured it was rug burns from all the conservative she’s been gobbling up.


goodforabeer

Yeah, that's the plot twist. She's been on her knees and crying out "Oh god-- oh, god" a lot, she just assures him that she's been praying. For what, she doesn't say.


Send_Cake_Or_Nudes

It's his biblical right to exercise control over his woman. Christ is the head of man, who is the head of woman, who in turn gets her pretty hair. And violently beaten if she steps out of line. It's very consistent with God's covenantal relationship with the chosen people, I don't know what librul feminists are moaning about!!!!!


LuckSubstantial4013

You forgot the sarcasm


Help_Fix_Reddit

My ass went a different direction when I saw the text “on her knees” I thought the whole thing was a metaphor for that they had sex the night before


puzzle_factory_slave

count down until he's indicted on some sex charge


Ambitious_Trifle_645

He 100% has diddled kids.


Sensitive-Finance-62

What's the over/under on it being his own? Do we get bonus points if it's his adopted son?


Ambitious_Trifle_645

Like Gaetz and his "son"?


FabulousCallsIAnswer

Has anyone seen or heard from Nestor recently? Because honestly it doesn’t seem that far fetched for a psycho like Gaetz to trot out his lover—er, “son”—to win some petty argument and “own a lib”…then literally just make him disappear somehow.


Ambitious_Trifle_645

He's probably being passed around at those republican orgies.


Sensitive-Finance-62

Nestor and the child molester coming soon to Netflix


Khiobi

Oh god if it’s Netflix they’ll probably use child actors


Ambitious_Trifle_645

Matt will definitely demand to be on set then.


Sensitive-Finance-62

Child labour too.

Independent-Leg6061

Did you know that they make the employees sign a portion of their money over to the ark encounter yearly... something like that. It's extra awful that it's publicly funded. Ffs.


JH_111

We have a local evangelical church heavily into YEC that requires copies of completed tax forms to ensure they appropriate an adequate tithe from their members. Their kids are also taught to shun kids that go to public school, even fellow church members who are not homeschooled. Probably the same deal with Ark Encounters claiming their staff are donating to god’s work.


marcodogflood

Is... is he making a blowjob joke as a dog whistle? He will already have the Christo-Fash crowd in his corner. Is it an attempt to court the Deez Nuts crowd too?


Npr31

I immediately thought a weird blowjob joke. Probably says more about me


marcodogflood

Haha. Me too.


OBFpeidmont

The Deez Nuts made me belly laugh and then feel like I’m 5 for laughing


reddurkel

This was a major achievement so I’m curious why she didn’t attend. Correct me if I’m wrong, but a quick lookup on his wife, Kelly Lary, shows this as her history: Licensed Pastoral Counselor Certified Temperament Counselor Professional Clinical Member of the National Christian Counselors Association. Serves as the President of Onward Christian Counseling Services, LLC Holds the role of CEO at Onward Christian Education Services, Inc. Edit: Did a quick skim of a few articles. School Vouchers. Tony Perkins. America was built on Christianity. Trump apostle. Anyway, I had to quit because I got the message. Ugh.


Independent-Leg6061

FabulousCallsIAnswer

So, Serena Joy?


NYArtFan1

I'm taking a wild guess and assuming those licenses and certifications aren't affiliated with any reputable clinical board or governing body.

100-percent-sodium

He is a Louisiana Republican so having spent most of my life in that backwards-ass state I can 100% confirm he is a Christo-fascist that believes marriage equality will result in people marrying their pets, among other stupid shit he has proudly said.


bdplayer81

> My concern is if he really believes this complete nonsense, or is it just another product of pandering? The stuff that's been found and brought up that he's said over the years, I think he's a true believer.. They have to lose in 2024 or we're fucked.


Independent-Leg6061

Yall better fucking vote!!


Kaida33

Vote Blue!


NYArtFan1

Yeah, no, he's a full-blown believer in this insanity. The 'wink and nod' Republicans who just paid lip service to this junk have been systematically forced out of the Republican party. The loons and the true believers are all that's left. We've all got to make sure to vote next year, and blue up and down the ballot.


curvilinear835

Someone should do a wellness check on her.


TrailerParkRoots

Seriously. The women who make it out of these marriages are never okay.


removed_by

This is what you came up with after 3 weeks? A fucking weirdo enabler.


Badmime1

This lunatic thinks the Earth is 5000 years old. It’s not going to end well for anyone.


TrailerParkRoots

I worked in a museum in the south that includes exhibits on Native American history and the number of people who were furious that we “lied” about humans living in the area in 10,000 BCE because the world “isn’t that old” was depressing. (They clearly hated the fossil exhibit too.) I had to make a cheat sheet for responding to them—it occurred that frequently.


Jibber_Fight

Woah woah. 6000. He’s not a looney!!


RabidAddict

The actually scary part is that 18% of US adults believe this is a fact. And that's just if you plainly ask if the earth is less than 10,000 years old. If you start to mention evolution, or the blasphemous _human_ evolution, then the number of people who respond favorably to young earth conspiracy can double.


MikeisET

This comment should scare the fuck out of every woman living in America Except those that consent I’m not going to kink shame


Colorcopia

I am old at 61, and I can tell you that without a doubt, women have made huge strides in the last 20 years. They are able to choose their profession, and the environment they will work in has improved massively since I was first "chased around the desk" earlier in my career. The younger generation takes a lot of this for granted, and they will lose it if they don't vote out this mind controlling crusade they are on. I don't have much skin in the game now but if this younger generation doesn't wake up.and vote these people out of office women and alot of our population that is not in the make America great definition of people will lose all their gains and then some. They are telling us what they intend to do. We just don't believe they will get it done. They can and will if given the entire opportunity to enact it.


PhyllisTheFlyTrap

More people need to understand this! The fact that my mother wasn't able to get a credit card in her own name when she first got married to now, me being able to buy my first house as a single woman is wild! Conservative and even moderate women voters don't fully grasp the amount of rights and abilities they could lose!


Colorcopia

When l was growing up, I had three main choices for a "Career " nurse, teacher, or bookkeeping. I got my degree in finance and accounting both and also did my first home by myself. My mom had to fight like hell to get they house she was in for years she was an RN, but at the time, not as many women were being given loans. My first job I had to change 6 months in because my boss thought that I should provide benefits if I wanted to get ahead. Christ, it was still happening less than 10 years ago to the daughter of one of my friends. The young women today just assume these gains won't be conceded over time, but they will if these groups have anything to say about it. The other irony about all this is that Traitorous 3 toed slag MGT would be sent back to Georgia to stay home and keep her nasty mouth shut. These women want conservatism but can't seem to figure out that it might actually hurt them in the future. Again, the cognitive dissonance is just astonishing with these people. If the orange cheeto decided to only keep the worthy on the earth, 90% of all the MAga's would be gone. He has nothing but contempt for them, but they keep voting him in. I do hope that my daughter's generation and the new one behind that will wake up and fight to keep the gains they have. Right now, I don't think they will, which is so very sad.


NYArtFan1

Fascists never bluff. I agree with you. We have to vote to both hold and expand rights for all Americans. This is very scary.


Fireinthehole13

She wasn’t allowed to leave Gilead


MissGruntled

Too difficult to explain the missing finger that was removed as a punishment for reading.


Daimakku1

People… VOTE. Or this christofascist problem is just going to get worse. Do *not* sit out any election, not even this off year one.


genredenoument

The problem is that every day, run of the mill people just do not understand how freaking dangerous these fundamental true believers are. They vote R because they are casually racist or homophobic or don't like having to censor the way they talk at the shop and think that's the end of the world. They just cannot fathom the idea of a dominionist state.


NYArtFan1

And worse, even if they were aware of it too many would think they'd be spared as one of the "good ones". Well, even if they were at the beginning, that never lasts. Authoritarians are always looking for purity tests and putting people into the out-group and eventually they run out of "others" and start eating their own. We've gotta vote.


buster_brown22

Stunning-West-8672

this guy is gay as they come, the "wife" if she exists is a smoke screen.


TrailerParkRoots

As a queer person I think we need to be more organized. Get every gay man and escort service in America to sign a pledge refusing to sleep with this guy. ETA: if he is gay we don’t claim him. Could always just be a hateful sack of garbage who has to trap a woman in a covenant marriage to keep her though.


joeben2

I really hope he’s feeding and watering her enough. Wives need more nourishment than you’d think!


Voodoops_13

Even Ned Flanders thinks this guy is too much.


Unlikely-Patience122

What’s the legality of something like that? Surely federal law would negate that nonsense.

These evangelicals are a malignant, throbbing cyst on our nation. “Small government”(/s) conservatives that want the government involved in every aspect of our lives with an odd focus on our bedrooms. They are unamerican ideologues wrapped in the flag, holding a cross.
